Thanks^^

The succession concert is May 24th (from the information you sent in with the succession application), one day before the early results.

The Draft Kaigai are another way of reaching the second round of the AKB/SKE/etc. auditions. They have a number of girls, whom get to do kenkyuusei activities ( minus the concerts, I believe), and after a while, they get presented in front of the Team Captains. The Team Captains get to choose their pick, and the picked members do either get trained and become part of said team, or get a "free ticket" to the second round of the auditions, I'm not too sure which. Check on the AKB48 wikia, they have it written out fairly well.
